Description
The program prepares students for engineering jobs in the modern and environmentally friendly automotive industry. Automotive jobs often deal with the business side of after sales in service, spare parts and car inspection. Manufacturing jobs can vary from after sales into engineering. Environmental aspects are an important theme in education for example in materials science, vehicle inspections and component recycling.
The program values are according to the oath of Archimedes: Engineers are involved in creating technology that will benefit nature and people. Engineers are in all their activities to protect plant, animal and human life. Engineers avoid dishonesty and discord, and aim to become more skilled problem solvers. Engineers consider the trends of development, and avoid harmful goals.
Modern vehicle and garage software are used in education and students learn about vehicle digital technology.
All students have a change to practice their skills in the international Formula Student project which culminates in the competition against other similar student teams from other universities.
Students have an opportunity to organize and participate into the annual international co-operation week.
Goals:
1st year. Students master the mathematical and physical basis of automotive engineering and as trainees familiarize themselves with the working life between first and second study years.
2nd year. Students master the basis of automotive engineering and as trainees familiarize themselves with the automotive industry .
3rd year. Students majoring in industrial vehicle engineering study engineering methods and software and train in engineering jobs and projects. Students majoring in garage engineering study automotive business in theory and in practice and train in business jobs. Students majoring in intelligent machines study intelligent machine development.
4th year. Students majoring in industrial vehicle engineering practice vehicle engineering in the Formula Student project. Students majoring in garage engineering practice marketing and vehicle construction in the Formula Student project and study business economics. Students majoring in intelligent machines specialize in intelligent machine development.
Curriculum development and working life cooperation
The program is evaluated and developed together with an advisory group consisting of automotive industry executives. The advisory group includes one or two students chosen by the student union.
Further information
Students choose their major by Christmas time of the first year. Student can also delay choosing their major until the end of the first year by studying all courses provided in the program.
Students have a possibility for exchange studies in a foreign university. It is recommended to study German and study in a German university.
In intelligent machines study major education is based on projects, where students participate during the 3rd and 4th year.
Description
Garage engineering major prepares students for after sales, garage and spare parts business management. Emphasis is on garage management, leadership, customer service, sales, quality and marketing management skils. Especially, the practical learning (30 c.u.) gives good skills for demanding jobs.
